Is there a regulation stating BVA remands are required some sort of a quicker VA rating decision?

[63Charlie]

I don't have any of the rules or regs. 

 

My C&P exams were done on my remands two months ago and there is no movement(rating decision).

Feels like the VA raters put my stuff on a shelf to collect dust.

 

I'd like to kick-start things as my issues are obviously gathering dust waiting on a rater to decide.

Is this only a pipe dream?

Once a claim is ready for decision, it typically takes 1-3 months before the decision letter is generated from what I am seeing lately.

Same here blah. Had my hearing in April. Running out of hobbies. My attorney did warn me though. It could be another year. This is a legacy appeal.

I waited 17 years to get my claims settled.  (Filed in 2002, not resolved until 2019, after multiple, multiple, appeals).  

One way the VA does this.  They "chop" your claim into many pieces:

1.  Service connection or no.  Many times an appeal will decide "only" this issue, not a disability percentage, not an effective date.  

2.  Disability percentage.  You say you appealed already for sc?  So you are done, right?  Wrong.  You have to appeal again as VA loves to lowball this.  

3.  Ok, so you got your disability percentage, your SC, you are done, right?  Nope, you get hornswaggled on the effective date, par for the course.  Back to appeals.  

4.  Now multiply this times each condition applied for.  The VA can easily drag things out 10, 20, or more years, hoping the Veteran will die and his widow will be uninformed that she needs to file a "substitution of claimant" within a short period of time after the Veterans death.   Here is the method VA uses (unwritten):

CHOP CHOP CHOP up those claims!  Make Vets wait longer.  Better yet, the VA philosophy is that, since 22 Vets kill themselves each day, maybe you, too, will get frustrated and also do  that, and save VA mucho dinero.   So, frustrate those Vets as much as possible.  Find that glitch in his or her claim, and if you cant find one, make one up.  Oh, and dont forget to make up denial reasons, too.  (The VA alleged "its been too long since military service" and denied me.  Of course, "time since mililtary service" is not one of the criteria, so this rater made this one up).   The va does this "because it works", and many Vets dont deny.  (Oh, I guess it has been a long time since military service).  Dont forget the VSO "misinformation chain", too.  

Remember, economically depressed and homeless Vets are much, much more likely to take their own life, than those who have a steady stream of income from VA.  

    Often, the key to winning is to "out wait", "out persist", and "out live" grumpy stingy VA rating specialists.
